    from my perspective, this would make it TLP product (assuming it's currently in the store). If it's NOT in the store, then it becomes non-TLP product.

    Fantastic! Thanks so much, Julie. I used plain text but added one of Leah's new styles to this LO to create the word art (gotta love Leah!). @mrs2a50

    So, do things that I create for my page that are not "product" count against me? Templates, word art, labels, etc.

    so I have a silly question, if you use an alpha to make a title, do you count each separate letter or count the full title as 1 element? and I don't think much about fonts for my journaling, but there are fonts in the store, so I guess I should consider non-TLP fonts part of my non-TLP piece of the pie also?

    this is really a humor thread, and the whole spirit of the challenge is to create pages, we are the Lily Pad and this is a store and business, giving away prizes to all who complete. WE as hosts, pollys and such are not nickpicking by number, this is all in fun.
    Keeping with the LIly Pad spirit of fun and happy, just use lots of TLP designs, credit them so our checking process is easier (75% is 3/4 of your page) and all is well.

    haha I know. and I use TLP products almost exclusively, but I did a page for Day 5 that is mostly photos with just a few elements and I started to get worried!

    Each host checks the page, and will contact you if there are any discrepancies. It won't be the 30 of January and you find out your page wasn't correct. Let not your :heartslubbe worried!

    are there any guidlines how to count when I do a hybrid page? Do I need to count each acrylic paint/glitter/thread I used as one item for example?

    I was thinking about this too because I'm using a freebie alpha. I'm going to say my title is one element and call it good haha otherwise I need a really short title!

    The totality of the glitter, paint or thread would be one element each. Similar to digi. If you have a scatter, you wouldn't count each individual bead.

    A simpler way to look at ALL your pages is to look at the page objectively. If roughly 75% of the page is current TLP product, and it's obvious that the majority of the product you used is TLP, you're fine. If the page is predominantly non-TLP, and I really have to look at the page and ponder whether it's TLP product, you're not. We do not count or do any secret formulas or percentage calculations. If it's clearly TLP we don't question it. If you are in doubt, you may message me, Courtney (bestcee) or your challenge host and ask.
